Byron Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 Go to your cpanel and access your file manager there. Then look for your .htaccess file and post me what's in it.
Guest Geoff Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 You have to upload an index.html file to your document root. Otherwise, apache cannot serve any files, because there is nothing to serve. The error that you are getting is probably because directory indexing is disabled, and for security reasons you should probably leave it that way. The solution to your problem is simply to upload an index.html file, or index.php file, so that apache can serve the page to your users.
Byron Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 @Geoff: Directory indexing is not disabled by default. This is what a new account will show when you first register: http://tks.heliohost.org His problem is more than likely code that got added to his htaccess file by either him using his cpanel to block indexing or a program he's uploaded to his site. Either way he needs to figure out why he's getting the 403 error.
